Dedicated to the guardians of the night Location: Costa Rica In the heart of the Costa Rican rainforest, a young bat named Noche fears the dark. Guided by Amara, an older bat with silvered fur, he discovers the magic of the nighttime world - the hum of cicadas, the shimmer of fireflies, and the quiet language of the stars. As he begins to embrace the beauty of the night, Noche stumbles upon a crisis - baby sea turtles are crawling toward the glow of a nearby town, mistaking artificial lights for the moon. Determined to help, Noche and Amara enlist the aid of a young girl named Sofia, who rallies her village to turn off unnecessary lights, allowing the turtles to find their way to the sea. Inspired by the experience, Sofia spreads awareness about the importance of darkness for nocturnal creatures, and soon, the village adopts softer lighting, letting the stars shine once more. Noche, once afraid of the night, becomes one of its fiercest protectors, knowing that the dark is not something to fear - it is something to cherish.
